We attended the premiere of the new Taylor Swift doc at Sundance!

In this episode, Joi speaks with Noleca & Kenya about Lara Wilson’s new Netflix documentary on the highest-paid celebrity in the world, Miss Americana. It promises to be political, but it falls VERY short. In these times of intense racial tension in America, can you even call yourself political if you don’t mention race? The problem is much bigger than Taylor Swift, but it’s weird to see everyone try so hard to avoid the elephant in the room. 

And we talk to Matt Sayles, a LA-based fashion, portrait and commercial photographer who was at Sundance, working as a photographer for Netflix. He speaks about a day in his life; shooting the filmmakers of Mucho Mucho Amor (a documentary about the late, beloved Puerto Rican astrologer Walter Mercado), seeing Crip Camp (a documentary produced by the Obamas, about the hippie-run summer camp that sparked the disability rights movement), feeling like the help and why Sundance is more diverse than Hollywood.
